I am level 76 with this build and doing fairly well. I however find that I am having some mana issues. I have roughly 480 mana with +48 mana on my gear using this skill tree http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgAABAcFfQhnDkgRlhVQFm8WvxzcHRQfAiQ8J6ktHy2oMZ41kjZ7NsU64T1fQYdGcUk7SVFMs03jUDBSU1XGVupabV76YqxjQ2ZPaHRtGXBScFZ-WX_GgUmCHoMJiEKI8Y9Gj_qQG5MnlKCXlZf0mhOdo52qplenCKdcrFmxkLI4tAy0o7c-t9bAUcHFwfPPZdDQ1p3YJNhN2mLbC9tZ29TjhOdj8h3yRfPq-ej60vyr_gr-jw== I find that I cannot run clarity and discipline simultaneously using a maxed clarity. I run out of mana after spamming spectral around 8 times. Is there any reason my mana pool is so low compared to the 666 in your video? Any suggestions friends?
With your gear, and without using discipline aura, you aren't getting any (real) benefit from EB as you have pretty much no +energy shield (absolute or percentage). Furthermore, you have pretty much no +mana on your gear. Lastly, you have no +intellect on your gear at all. Remember as well, Voll's Protector cuts your total mana by half. After all this, Clarity purely by itself isn't going to cut it.
You may want to drop the max level Clarity for a level of Clarity at which you can run Discipline AND Clarity (and still have enough mana left over to cast your highest-cost skill) - the Reduced Mana support gem helps a lot. If you are not aware, the greater your mana pool the greater your base mana regen is - so Discipline (with EB) helps both as a buffer and for sustained use.
You'll probably want to try and get some mana/energy shield on your gear somewhere too, although with a max level Discipline and an appropriate level of clarity you may get away with the little you have on your gear (hard to tell with the lack of intellect as well). Use a level 1 spectral throw if you are not already; the difference in the manacost is fairly significant when you include the multipliers from the support gems linked to it.
Well the thing is that oro is using a total of +56 mana and ES gear and I am using +48 mana gear given that I am running EB. Also neither of us have any int gear. He has a max mana pool of 666 in the video and I have 480. Is this right? Is all I need to get +8 more max mana gear? I am running spec throw lvl 1 and clarity lvl 6. Something seems off. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks friends.
The difference comes from Discipline aura as you mentioned your not using it. Discipline at level 20 gem adds 318 mana (or 154 mana after Voll's).
Why do you keep for example the skill Cast on Damage Taken on level 1? I understand to keep spectral throw on level 1 because of the increased mana costs. And why dont you level up (or only up to level 5) Enduring Cry, Molten Shell, Critical Weakness etc.?
I have my CoDT linked with Enduring Cry, Molten Shell and Critical Weakness. But these skills are not really get activated from CoDT. Is there a order which skill gets activated first ? I have the feeling that my molten shell comes up quite often but i almost never see enduring cry or critical weakness.
What does Diamand Flask do exactly ?
Sorry iam new in the game and iam not the best in english. I hope you will understand what iam asking ;)
I'm not trying to leech views, I was responding to someone's specific request with something that might be helpful to them.
And to be honest, I do not benefit at all from telling others about my build, it just means more time responding to questions and an increased chance to get nerfed. Just trying to help others.
I'm confused why anyone is upset about anything here. Looks like the OP feels like he owns this thread on this forum he doesn't pay for or host. The OP also feels like he can tell you to quit posting on his thread. If I was you I'd just post ascii dicks (_)_)IIIIIIID on this bitch and tell that guy that this is the internet not kommunizt USSR and to fucking relax.

As you have so nicely pointed out, that this is the internet and not, as you said, "kommunizt USSR" you should take care of your language yourself :P.
Calling the OP a b**ch takes you down to the same level of niveau you insinuated the OP.
You are neither a moderator, nor do you host this forum or own it.
So where do you take the right from to post something like this using such a rude language ;)?
As i'm writing this, i realized that me is neither a moderator nor owning or histing thsi forum, so my last statement to this will be:
Let's all be peaceful and nice and polite and everyone will be happy :)!!

Thanks for your help.
Cast on Damage Taken's usefulness is related to the level of gems linked with it.
So if you want your CoDT to trigger a for example lvl 16 molten shell you have to level it up to the level it needs to fulfill the level requirements of the lvl 16 molten shell, which would be at lvl 59. So your CwDT must be leveled to at least lvl 15 to be able to trigger your molten shell. You can look this up at the Path of Exile Wiki.
For almost every question you have regarding gems or orbs ore somthing like that the internet holds an answer for you.
So just start googleing what you wan't to know and you will amost always find an answer.
Of course some more complex game mechanics or playing styles of chares are not always sufficiently described there, but then you will always find help here in the forum or ingame, i think.
Regarding the question you asked about the priority of the gems triggered.
Since the description of the gem says you have a 100% Chance to trigger the linked spell when you reach the needed amount of dmg taken, all linked spells should trigger, when you reach that dmg. I experienced though, that this is not always the case, which makes me wonder, how this gem really works. Maybe some other players can give us input to this.
